Acoustic Shock Waves to Modify Calcific Plaques – Intravascular Lithotripsy in the Peripheral Circulation
Abstract
Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is a new technique for treatment of severely calcified lesions that uses acoustic shockwaves in a balloon-based system to induce fracture in calcific plaque, facilitating luminal gain and vessel expansion. In this review, we provide a concise summary of the available data and clinical experience of IVL in various peripheral vascular beds, including facilitating vascular access for large-bore devices. We discuss...
